They We're Delighted.

The Grand Opera house was crowded
on Saturday night by delighted audi
ence, wNO assembled there to witness
the performance Of BARLEY Campbell's
celebrated play, "The White Slave" and
1t is only tribute of justice to say that
1t was one Of the best and most success
full performances ever given in the city.
All the characters were well cast and
were excellent in their respective parts,
and the special scenery was delightful,
especially the plantation scene, the
steamer salon and the wreck. These
were greeted with applause, and the
wreck In the storm, in which showers
OF real water came down, brought forth
a torrent Of applause. The negro i'm
presentations were artistic and natural,
and the minstrelsy OF the White Slave
qnsrtette was the source Of great pleas
ure and was literally applRuded. The
play was reproduced on Sunday night,
and was equally satisfactory.
